Part of Sand Creek’s dynamic two-headed backfield, Evans brings speed and explosiveness every time he touches the ball. A 1,000 yard rusher last season, Evans has the ability to make defenders miss in tight spaces before accelerating into the open field. Once he gets to the perimeter, it often becomes a footrace that few defenders can win. His vision and quick burst allow him to find cutback lanes, making him a threat for big plays on any carry. Evans proved last season that he can be a consistent difference maker, and with more experience under his belt, he’s poised to deliver another strong performance. Expect Evans to set the tone for Sand Creek’s ground game in Week 1.
